The crying in my beer that didn't turn out quite right thread....

[Dude]

So I'm sitting here with a fresh pint of my Guinness clone, and a pint of the real thing side by side, sipping each and wondering where I went wrong. Bitterness is spot on. I could up the mouthfeel next time, although its not too bad.
Wish I had another set or 2 of tastebuds tasting with me tonight.

I think I'm going to back off on the roasted barley big time and add some chocolate malt to it.

Guinness is just so smooth it bugs the C R A P out of me that I can't get close to it. Guinness is such a great beer.

Anyone else need a good cry?

Discuss.

You should have started a "crying" thread then. It's the new cool.

 

[Sir Sudster]

Ain't it grand though...brew..taste..cry.. brew..taste..cry... there will always be a tear in our beer and a smile on our face. That's homebrewin.

 

[Walker]

i was far from smiling when I bottled my porter and tasted it. i had more of a look.

[Sir Sudster]

You didn't drink enough of it.

 

[SwAMi75]

Stop trying to imitate and brew your own stuff, f00.

BTW, I just polished off a 90 Minute IPA.

So, just how long did it take?

 

[Walker]

ORRELSE:
did you add some spoiled beer to your wort to give it that proper Guinness tang?

[Sir Sudster]

Well, the ladies can have it and then they can put a smile on your face. It works out Man, really!

 

[SwAMi75]

So, just how long did it take?

'Bout 90 minutes, strangely enough.

 

[Sir Sudster]

took me about 5 ,not sure what you were waiting on..

 

[SwAMi75]

Damn, you must be a real alky, then!

 

[Sir Sudster]

When it comes to beer I ..Dear Sir .. I am a connoisseur..I just like to do it faster than most..most of the folks in my monthly meetings.

 

[SwAMi75]

Yeah, I know what you mean. I can flat connoisseur the hell out of some beer, now.

Brandon.....have we steered this thing far enough into the tar pits yet, or should we keep going?

 

[Sir Sudster]

This is the mumbling section ...Drunk ramblings are allowed.

 

[SwAMi75]

Yeah, and the tool is off to bed.

He's going on a cruise tomorrow. Can you believe that? A cruise! I mean....sun, ocean air, beaches, time with the wife, diving, comedy shows, gambling, great food, room service, time with the wife......

Why in the hell would a guy want to do that, when he could hang out here?!

 

[Dude]

He's going on a cruise tomorrow.

Yeah, and the next time I post to you suckers its gonna be as I'm gorging myself on gourmet food and living the good life--from Jamaica and Grand Cayman!

I'm even bringing homebrew. Whether its get by the security nazis is one thing, but its going to be attempted.

 

[BlightyBrewer]

Hey, cruisin 'n' boozin, I like it!

 

[Caplan]

Cruises? Only a matter of time before the 'Love boat' came back into this...

But i remember (probably a thousand years ago i admit) drinking the old Guinness in can form - Truly horrible - Fizzy nasty harsh 'bitter coffee' compared to the smooth silkier stuff on draught (or widget cans now).

I bet Orrelse version tastes better than the old stuff i drank for sure!

 

[sudsmonkey]

Yeah, and the next time I post to you suckers its gonna be as I'm gorging myself on gourmet food and living the good life.


Sorry , manmistaas " groping myself" ( not that there's anything wrong with it !). I spewed beer onto the monitor and surrounding environs. Gotta get my eyes checked. :cross:
